According to an annual report released by Lynch’s Landing, downtown Lynchburg has more than tripled its number of businesses in the past 10 years. The downtown revitalization group has a busy year ahead, with various partnerships and plans; including developing various business projects, redesigning the winter lights program and installing a public art project on the Bluffwalk. The city is slated to complete renovations to the lower Bluffwalk, next year. The work includes creating new pedestrian paths and outdoor spaces for the buildings that line the area. Artist proposals are being accepted now. To view a list of 2014 events, visit: www.lynchslanding.com
